Recently the French government led by French Prime Minister Manuel Valls introduced a surveillance bill which will give French intelligence services the power to hack computers or devices. French intelligence services will be able to intercept the metadata of anyone they suspect of having involvement in terrorist organizations, in order to protect the country from possible terror attacks and also anyone with ties to organized crime and industrial spying.

“There will be no mass surveillance” ~ Prime Minister Manuel Valls

Intelligence services would be able to snoop on suspects by planting video cameras and microphones in their homes, as well as placing tracking devices on vehicles. IMSI- catchers would also be used by intelligence services to ‘listen in’ on mobile phone traffic and track the movements of mobile phone users.

Thinking about working for the CIA? Recently CIA head recruiter Ron Patrick shared his experiences on how Facebook can hurt your job search when applying for jobs with the agency.

Think yourself a bit of a 007? For the record James Bond isn’t a spy (OK, apart from when he starred in “The spy who loved me”) he’s actually a 00 agent working for the Secret Intelligence Service, AKA MI6. The difference is James Bond has a licence to kill whereas CIA spies gather intelligence to counteract terrorist attacks and fight other serious crimes.

And just for the record, CIA spies don’t usually find themselves strapped to a surgical table with a laser beam precariously aimed at their crown jewels. If only the baddies were smart enough just to shoot James there and then rather than leave it to an ingenious piece of ridiculous evil technology which takes hours to kill the agent, all the while giving lengthy monologues about their plans to take over the world, giving him ample time to escape! But then of course, there would be no more James Bond movies, no more Daniel Craig. *Tears*

Internet privacy in Egypt is an increasingly contentious issue. Our man on the ground in Egypt tells us more:

Digital rights is a newcomer to a list of abuses perpetrated by the Egyptian government. What started as a revolution with a promise of social warfare developed into a systematic abuse of human rights that most recently extended to the virtual world. Visiting certain websites has lately been banned under the new telecommunication policies set up by Egypt’s Ministry of Interior. The protocol comes in response to the heightened terrorism threats that have took the country by storm in retaliation for the ousting of an Islamist president in late summer of 2013.

Censorship of YouTube continues to exist in many countries around the world. But which countries block YouTube?
